Plenty of room to walk between the front seats to get in and out of them and lots of storage in the gunnels. I think the problem with 99% of the boating world is monkey see, monkey do. Nobody thinks outside of what has already been done. And yes Blume, you are absolutely right about Pete just building what the customers ask for. At least I know I still have a one-of-a-kind piece!

I agree, not a fan of how the screen is put together. The base is raised too high... But maybe the owner just wanted an absolutely wind-free ride, understandable with kids or whatever I guess...


I like a little drama while boating, I guess thats why I have a 24.. plenty of drama with that thing. Backseat passengers clinging to dear life, you can't hear your girlfriend screaming at you over the wind noise, she is too afraid to let go to punch you in the arm.. THAT'S boating!

I thought you had a bunch of pictures of my boat from Rik? I've seen you post pics of it before here on OSO. Send me your direct email and I'll send you some. The file sizes are quite large and difficult for me to post here.

Yup, you've got'em! Here's a little vid of it running against a 36' w/ 763 ci motors vs my 588 ci motors (both N/A). Love my Skater/Sterling/Arneson combo!
